It’s getting harder and harder to find leather shoes ... even at higher price points. Forget leather soles.
I actually use him for leather items like sheaths for knives and such; so much leather-looking stuff like shoes are fake.
I buy my shoos at Goodwill and Salvation Army stores. I don’t look for them when I need them, rather, I buy a pair when I see that there is a pair on the shelf in good condition that fit. If you wait until you need them you won’t find any. I buy much of what I need that way. I also skim yard sales. Long ago that is the only way I could afford to buy stuff. Now I am old and have money to buy things I look at a price tag in a store and get repelled. I just can’t do it when I know that I can get something like it at a yard sale for a quarter or a dollar. I have no hangup on brand names or stylish. You can get guns at yard sales, too.
